I've never watched a single episode of Survivor, but the "three different countries" eliminates A. There's an East Timor as the +1 noted, and New Guinea is divided, but only into 2 parts. Depending upon how gutsy I felt, I'd either go for broke and pick A or else use the 50:50.

This is one of those questions where I was trying to think of the song based on the year & artist before the answers came up but couldn't in time. Then I couldn't decide if it was B or C. Know A is TLC and D isn't really belted. I can hear both B & C but can't confirm the artist on either one. Probably ATA because a $10,000 50/50 would probably leave B & C...

1990 is about right for B. It is "Unbelievable" by EMF. I will never forget that song because KROQ debuted it out here sometime between Halloween and Thanksgiving one year and I heard it many, many times during a 4 to 5 week period before I heard anyone identify the song.

I thought "You're unbelievable!" was from Robert Palmer's song, later used in a Pepsi commercial, IIRC.

I can't find that lyric for Robert Palmer. He did have a song with "You're so unbelievable," but I'm not familiar with it nor the commercial.
